Abstract:
Published in 1942, this is a study of articles and editorials which appeared in the African American press from 1933 up to July 1939. Concludes that "practically every item of the two situations has been utilized to illustrate similarities. The articles are of all types, and range from those which state that Negro conditions are much worse than German-Jewish conditions, through those which maintain that they are the same, to those which say that the Jew-baiting of Nazi Germany is so atrocious that it has no direct parallel in present-day America. Such articles are considering, however, only the most overt manifestations of prejudice without attempting to strike at its basis". Includes numerous quotes from articles in the press.
